By Zelensky, I think.
What? I'm pretty sure he said that.
Yeah, here it is: 'Army of Europe' needed to challenge Russia, says Zelensky

Yes, he spoke on it at the Munich Security Conference, to frequent applause
Yes (I don't know why you were downvoted), and others, but unfortunately I find it highly unlikely to happen. Or at least, it'll only happen when it's already too late, and Russia starts steamrolling more of Europe while the US does nothing (or actively supports it - the current admin is highly pro Russia).
The US is no longer a reliable ally to the EU or NATO. The EU must be able to protect itself.
Russia didn't even manage to steamroll Ukraine at the start of the war, when Ukraine didn't have the support of the west.
They can cause an enormous amount of lifes to be lost, but winning against nevermind steamrolling EU is farfetched.
I could be wrong, but imo the EU is looking more rickety than the Russian Federation. It's not far fetched for the future to feature a militarised and experienced in war Russia starts breaking apart the EU and nibbling parts off.
And by rickety, I mean political cohesion.
